The system isn't perfect. But it's what the majority decided.

since i still don't have a clue where you are, i'm gonna go with US facts for this post. what we have is not what the majority decided. it's what the 1% decided - the ultimate minority. fatass suits with loaded wallets decide where this country goes, not the citizens. it's been that way for quite a while. lobbying is pretty overpowered shit and needs a big nerf. when it comes to LGBT rights, it's what churches decide. for some reason, priests and sheepy church goers are allowed to change laws based on their skewed perception of reality. they whine and whine and claim its infringing on their religion, and things are changed. the rich also duck it up by cashing in on it. the real citizens over here have no say in a thing unless it's small and local. maybe. small, local things could be the same. but i'll never vote.

You must fight for your rights, but there is also a chance to lose that battle. Losing that
battle means they are not valid


correction - losing a battle for basic rights means the system is broken and the constitution is still being blatantly stomped on. again, no clue where you are, so i'm using an ancient, irrelevant, document some assholes in powdered wigs worked on.

The truth is what most
people believe is the truth.


what's that saying? that lying over and over again doesn't make the lie true or whatever? why should i join in on thinking something is true just because most do? over here, we're told what to think. the media is almost 100% controlled by a handful of corporations. most over here believe in something just because they were fed it. they don't question it. i won't be a part of it. even when people don't listen, exposing something still might help a bit. it's a war on information and facts that is currently being lost, but holy shit people are trying to get the majority out of the liquid shit the media and churches and shit are pouring out on everyone.

"They've accepted this place as what it is.
That doesn't mean they are happy."

It's a compromise. Life is full of them.


ok, this one kinda hits a nerve. that sounds like you're just brushing it off as a deal. "you stay here and be discriminated against. if you don't like it, leave." in fact...

This means, that they are happy with it.
When they stop being happy with it, they'll move.


that's exactly what it is. that is not how it works. just because people stay, doesn't mean they accept/are happy with the state of everything. why do you think people fight for their rights? for themselves, people they know, and people they don't know who are in the same situation. they also stay because it's expensive to leave. not just expensive on the wallet, but on emotions and ties with people, places, things, whatever. plus, it's like this all over the place. the fight would continue anywhere.

I don't want to live in a place where fabulouss making out is allowed.

why? what about that makes you not want it? it's awesome seeing people do that. it shows they are making progress and are becoming more comfortable with being who they are. and progress is what this world needs and comfort is what its people need. (this excludes everyone against it. most against it have probably been existing in comfort or even luxury this whole time, thus adding to the obliviousness).

I don't
want all western modern values all over the world.


so you're alright with other, harmful, values being all over the world just because its their values, so ho hum, they can do whatever they want? in other countries, the minorities or naysayers are stoned and shit. women are, by law, inferior veiled creatures that have no rights to rise against the mighty meaty man. it would be best if everyone across the world could share the same, protective, values. and whatever other good values. duck bad values.

Back to the point. People are not equal, because people are different.

people are not equal because fear, money, greed, and propaganda. what you're saying is that people are inherently not equal from the moment they exist. and while true, it's because of the above, not just simply because of that different trait. if those above things i listed were fixed, those traits wouldn't matter/matter nearly as much.
